This sounds like you (or your installer) has built coreutils in "small-file mode", which supports files only up to 2 GiB. The coreutils default is to build in "large-file mode", which doesn't have that limit. If you built coreutils, please check the build and see why it was done in small-file mode. You can look in config.h and check that it has a "#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64". If it doesn't, find out why it doesn't. If someone else built coreutils for you, please forward this message to them. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
